From the album: Sketches by Paul
Upper parts of the hydria are starting to come together. The container is just over 18" tall at this stage and was wheel thrown in two parts, assembled on the wheel, allowed to dry for a few hours and then given the final shaping/neck-forming. With the addition of the footed-base, the greenware will stand just under 24" tall...that cannon happen until the base is hardened sufficiently to hold the weight of the upper portions.© Copyright 2016 - Paul Chenoweth - Nashville, TN - All rights reserved.

Realizing that the greenware portions of the container will all of the assembled parts will weight 12-14 pounds, I changed the plans for the base to be more than just stocky feet. This will dry slowly over night since the wheel thrown pieces and the hand built feet are at different degrees of dryness. All together, the bas will have to be quite dry before assembling the top to the base.© Copyright 2016 - Paul Chenoweth - Nashville, TN USA - All rights reserved.

The horns on this project are the side handles for a hydro-like container. If pulled like one might make a handle for a mug, the large end of the pull would be nearly 2" in diameter...and there are weight and drying issues that make that a poor option. In this instance, the horns started as a 1.5 pound lump of clay pulled over a wooden tool that is sold/marketed as a spout maker. Once the basic form/thickness is established on the spout maker, there is a small amount of traditional pulling involved before forming the twist on the horn.© Copyright 2016 - Paul M.

This is the first of the two ram horn handles attached to the hydria project. From the original sketch, the ram's head and horns were to scale as an attachment for the hydra...now, it is starting to feel a little more like a ram's head with a hydra attached. All to say, sometimes you just roll with it and see how things turn out. Some minor alteration of the belly of this pot has been done (i.e. the round form has been elongated slightly)...I'll sleep on this change before making additional alterations. The forming of the ridges on the horn does take a bit of time...probably an hour and a half, plus 2 cups of coffee . -Paul© Copyright 2016 - Paul M.
